Wont be long now

And right on cue, Just a pleasant Sunday arvo convo starter before the main game.

For anyone interested... Read on!...

Well the big fella certainly is playing great footy at Norwood of late with bags of 6, 4, and 8 goals at his last 3 starts.

Pretty good to see after he missed the past two Norwood Grand Finals through several shocking injuries.

I saw a short SANFL Highlights package recently and he has put on some size.

His 6 goals yesterday came playing CHF and pulling in 11 marks.

Well done Juice and I'm sure all on Demonland wish you the best with the rest of the year.

Never know, mature age player, might be of interest to another club next year?!

I am not sure why all the angst on Newton.

He was pick 46 and taken young in the overall ordinary draft of 2004. At that end of the draft picks are always a punt.

Whilst having the appearance of a good contested mark and a good kick for goal, he never had the aptitude or ethic to make it.

Survived as a low cost option on our list with lack of forwards

He didn't make it in the big time....so what. There have been many more at MFC (and far worse than Juice)

If people want to rabbit on about bad selections they should focus on the wasting of first round picks in that year like Bate and Dunn.

Yep agree with most of this. Was somewhat cruelled by injuries both at Melbourne and of late Norwood ( ACL)

Still, he played 25 games for 35 Goals as records show, which was a handy return for one so maligned on this forum.

amazing how things turn around 'picket', Dunny has done what they hoped 'the Juice' would do. ah well 1 outa 2 will do.

Ultimate list clogger with well know fan boi who would come back in another life as the dirt under Juice's toenail.

Newsworthy event of a past player LOL please!

Give us the run down on Isaac Weetra, Luke William and Hayden Lamaro while your at it.

Perhaps Dazzledavey, you would prefer to give a run down of you Avatars current form for Richmonds Magoos???

If Frawley goes I expect we need to add a mature KPP Player preferably a forward at some stage.

Right now Hogan is injured. Fitzpatrick and Gawn are rucks. Georgiou is the only KPP we have at Casey and an undersized one.

Who is the best tall forward ready to go who we could get? There might be a Pedersen trade. Or we go after someone highly valued. If not we should consider someone like Juice for the rookie list. It's not nearly as dumb as it sounds.

Doing a Richmond and filling the team with recycled players is stupid. But a rookie forward in case of emergency isn't horrible and Juice has more talent than others and might thrive in a real culture.

I do not think we would be interested! I started this thread to congratulate a much maligned former player on playing good footy in the SANFL.

Pity the scorn and derision that has followed! The man played 25 odd games and kicked at least a goal a game!

I think there may be a club out there that may, MAY be interested in a mature age Forward.

Thanks for the enlightened thoughts Georgio!

Question; are you actually Juice Newton trying to get some rumours and hype flying around about yourself to score another shot at it?

Ah, that's a good one is PF Juice Newton? Ah No.

I just think and always have that through a combination of factors, he never really reached his potential.

All i'm saying is at 27 I think an AFL Club might, ( might) think about him as a mature age recruit. If his form holds up why wouldn't a club consider him?

As for rejoining Melbourne I wouldn't think so. I'm not pushing that barrel! Would I like to see him given another chance somewhere else ? Why not?

Yep, well maybe a few other clubs as well as he kicked 4 out of 8 for Norwood tonight to continue impressive form!

Good to see!

Seriously PF no one gives a flying toss about Newton! He is one of about 10 000 players that have been delisted by the Melbourne Football Club

Take your Newton Orgy somewhere else. The only sad individual who cares is you.

Given Richmond is interested in Bootsma you never know! Juice has got to be one of the biggest disappointments, he looked like a he had all the attributes but when it came to taking the step promising young player to player he failed.

Good on him for doing well in the SANFL, couldn't be doing him any harm.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
